Chapter 1176 1176: Weng Zhiru's Scheme!
The phone call went through.Weng Zhiru was initially responsible for logistics across the board, but later also moved to the front lines, now overseeing the deployment of the logistics corps.
I want to ask him how the war is going, and if I need to return immediately.
"Of course we need you!" Weng Zhiru said on the phone, "Commander Zuoqiu, I very much want to give you some leave so you can rest well, but something big is going to happen in Western Earth. All four Great Armies are here; it's precisely the time when we need people. We're even planning to call back two of the Five Great Generals. You should feel how tense the war situation is right now!"
"Yes."
Zuoqiu Feng raised his eyebrows.
All Four Great Armies have come over, yet it's still not enough. Calling back two famous generals must mean the opponent is indeed strong.
"I'll set out now and head to Western Earth."
Zuoqiu Feng said.
"Okay, where are you now? I'll arrange for nearby Dragon Bureau people to send a helicopter to pick you up."
Weng Zhiru replied.
"I'm in Lake City, Yunzhidian District."
Zuoqiu Feng said.
"Lake City? Cloud Peak?" Weng Zhiru got confused for a moment and asked, "Are you at Qin Feng's house?"
"...Uh-huh."
Zuoqiu Feng's calm face blushed a little.
Previously, when chatting with Wushang, upon mentioning she was at Qin Feng's house, Wushang immediately changed his attitude, advising her to stay at Qin Feng's house and not go to the battlefield, which made her blush a bit. So, when Weng Zhiru asked, she deliberately skipped saying Qin Feng's name, yet when saying the address, he still figured it out.
"With Qin Feng?"
Weng Zhiru asked once more.
"Yeah."
Zuoqiu Feng nodded, her face reddening even more.
Unexpectedly, her relationship with Qin Feng had spread so widely.
"Oh dear, why didn't you say so earlier? You don't need to come to Western Earth for now; just be with Qin Feng at his house. You've both made great contributions and have been so tired before, you should have a good rest..." Weng Zhiru suddenly changed his mind.
Zuoqiu Feng was a bit bewildered and said, "Didn't you say the situation in Western Earth is extremely tense?"
"No, no, it's not tense. A big battle is about to start, but the intelligence says it will be in a month, so you can rest for a month. Don't worry, we can handle it here; you definitely have to take good care with Qin Feng..."
Weng Zhiru said.
Zuoqiu Feng became more and more confused.
Why suddenly it's important for her to be with Qin Feng?
"Alright, that's it for now, not saying more! You can go watch movies, have some coffee, shop at malls, and most importantly, be careful about... 'that'!" Weng Zhiru said.
"Careful about what??"
Zuoqiu Feng became increasingly puzzled and thoroughly misunderstood what he meant.
"When you're together at night, make sure to stay safe, okay? Safety! That's it, for now! See you in a month..."
Weng Zhiru advised, hanging up the phone.
"..."
Zuoqiu Feng blinked, looking up at Qin Feng, and asked, "What's really going on?"
Qin Feng chuckled beside her and said, "Didn't you catch on?"
"No," Zuoqiu Feng shook her head.
"Fancy yourself the commander of the Million Army, yet you didn't even figure this out." Qin Feng laughed, "He mentioned 'a month' before Western Earth's battle begins, meaning they want me to join the war too, but are embarrassed to say it directly. After all, I've done enough for the Dragon Bureau, and as a condition of being the 'Bright War God', I can choose not to partake in any battles, just like Yan Nantian, with the 'National Stabilization Regulations' making me untouchable."
Zuoqiu Feng was a little enlightened by this, "You mean, they want us together, so that in a month our bond deepens, leading you to the battlefield?"
"Exactly, that's about the size of it." Qin Feng smiled, "It's like they're using a Beauty Trap on me!"
"..."
Zuoqiu Feng raised her eyebrows slightly and exclaimed, "How outrageous! Even Wushang...!"
She intended to say it was one thing for Weng Zhiru and the others to matchmake her with Qin Feng, but even Wushang was now doing it, learning bad habits.
But Qin Feng interrupted her.
Qin Feng waved his hand with a smile and said, "No, no, you misunderstood Wushang. Wushang isn't as devious as them; he genuinely wishes us well and sincerely hopes you and I are together."
"..."
Zuoqiu Feng thought for a moment, finding some truth in what he said.
Earlier, she praised Qin Feng wholeheartedly, holding him as somewhat of an idol.
Thinking of that.
Zuoqiu Feng couldn't help but look up at Qin Feng, seemingly trying to see if he was as good as Wushang said.
But upon meeting Qin Feng's gaze, her heart trembled slightly, and she quickly turned her gaze away, her heart inexplicably pounding.
"By the way, I still don't understand Elder Weng's warning to pay attention to 'safety', what does it mean? Could someone be trying to assassinate you?"
Zuoqiu Feng grew concerned thinking of this.
Upon careful thought.
It wasn't entirely impossible.
Perhaps, urging her and Qin Feng to be together was meant for her to secretly protect him?
"You're overthinking it."
Qin Feng couldn't help but laugh, "What he meant by us paying attention to safety is when we're together at night, use things like Jissbon."
"Jiss... bon?"
Zuoqiu Feng blinked, completely clueless to what that was.
Qin Feng blushed, leaned over, and whispered softly into her ear.
Zuoqiu Feng's face turned crimson, playfully turning aside, "Scoundrel! You're making stuff up!"
"That's truly what he meant." Qin Feng shrugged.
"Impossible, Elder Weng would never randomly bring that up; he's not that kind of person, clearly you're thinking nonsense!" Zuoqiu Feng retorted.
Qin Feng sighed, "Want to know the reason? Because he's worried about us as a handsome couple, that if we get lucky and you conceive, how would you manage? A month later is when the battle begins; being pregnant during that time could greatly damage your health."
"..."
Zuoqiu Feng pondered, finding some logic in that...
She glanced at Qin Feng and said, "...How come you're so smart, knowing everything from a few words?"
"Ah..."
Qin Feng sighed deeply, stepping to the edge of the cliff, gazing across Lake City's scenery, and said, "I also wish I could be like you, naïve and pure, without any scheming or calculating. But the world is harsh, and after suffering so much, one's thoughts get complicated..."
Zuoqiu Feng watched the figure amidst the breeze, suddenly realizing he possessed a maturity far beyond his peers, making him very charming...
"Let's go!"
Qin Feng finished sighing, turned around, and proposed, "Let's head to Five Rings Mountain."
"There's one more thing I want to know."
Zuoqiu Feng raised her eyes to him and asked, "Will you go to Western Earth in a month?"
"Definitely."
Qin Feng shrugged, a charming smile spreading across his lips.
At that moment.
In Zuoqiu Feng's eyes, a sense of spring warmth and revival lingered, stirring emotions profoundly...
